A mere play on sounds doesn’t make genuine music happen
just like a play on words doesn’t necessarily make a
profound poem. Nowadays contemporary electronic music
crosses every conceivable boundary designed for a wide
range of uses. This release one might possibly define
as a useless one except for being primarily credited
for a sole listening purpose (What else is music for?)
since its numerous filaments, varying from jazz to the
symphonic tradition, evoke an insatiable desire to take
a closer look or rather listen to the way they merge
within the multilayered textures by tightly pressing
your ear to the vibrating loudspeaker. That having
been said, the rhythmic patterns deployed in the tracks
presented can easily boast their danceability being a
potential djing treat on the dance floor. It takes a
special gift to put together so aesthetically distant
if not alien ingredients in one concoction which
miraculously turns into an aural balm to your ears
luring one to the realm of highly intellectual sound
landscapes. Once so glitchy and jagged and then
unexpectedly tender and soothing, striking with lyricism
and melodiousness, all smoothly aligned together not
for nothing, the music happens here which is a well
deserved reward for the decent musician’s effort.
It goes without saying that the project wouldn’t have
been pulled through without the spiritual support of
well as his devoted friends whose spiritual and
material support made it all possible.
